3 Tensors Why Do We Care? Tensors are everywhere (Simula0ons, physical theories) Can hardly be seen anywhere nobody cares? 5 Tensors Why Do We Care? If you re siwng at a cocktail party with a bunch of engineers, physicists, and mathema0cians, and you want to start a heated debate, Just ask out loud: What is a tensor? One person will say that, for all prac0cal purposes, a tensor is just a fancy word for a matrix. Then someone else will pipe up indignantly and insist that a tensor is a linear transforma;on from vectors to vectors. Yet another person will say that a tensor is an ordered set of numbers that transform in a par;cular way upon a change of basis. Other folks (like us) will start babbling about dyads and dyadics. [R. Brannon, Functional and Structured Tensor Analysis for Engineers, UNM Book Draft, 2003] 6

4 Tensors Why Do We Care? Vector visualiza0on Intui0ve no0on of a vector Tensor visualiza0on Intui0ve no0on? Prevalent Applica0ons Some driving ques0ons Long visualiza;on history, well accepted Many different applica0ons Only a few shared ques0ons No visualiza;on history, hardly known 7 Tensors Why Do We Care? Data?? Head Computer No common language across applica0ons But terminology mostly related to specific tensor invariants à Basis of our visualiza0on concept Eigenvalues Eigenvectors Questions Fuzzy Crisp Oeen scien0sts have no glue how to expect from the tensor data adapted from talk by Miriah Meyer given at Dagstuhl 2011?? 8

5 Tensors Why Do We Care? Tensor visualiza0on is field that is s0ll in its infancy (maybe except for Diffusion Tensor Imaging however this does not really happen in the visualiza0on community) 9 Overview I. Tensors As mathema0cal objects As physical descriptors II. Some basic visualiza0on methods III. Tensor Invariants for feature defini0on IV. The story of a collabora0on

6 I. Tensors as mathema0cal objects I Tensors as mathema0cal objects V n-dim vector space Second-order tensor T is a bilinear func0on Second-order tensor T as lin. operator T :V V! T (v,w) = w T T v, v,w V, T! n n T :V V T (v) = T v, v V v 1,v 2 V 2 T ( v 1,v 2 )! T = t 1n! "! # t nn t 11 t n1 This is not a tensor but a matrix Oeen a tensor is mixed up with its representa0on 12

7 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects The tensor is uniquely determined by its ac0on on all unit vectors Rota0on, deforma0on, reflec0on 13 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects Symmetric tensor Deforma0on, reflec0on no rota0on 14

8 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects S Posi;ve definite, symmetric tensor Deforma0on no rota0on, no reflec0on 15 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects Tensors can be analyzed using any convenient reference frame For specific reference frames, the tensor representa0on becomes especially simple à Basis given by the eigenvectors of the matrix Symmetric tensor Eigenvectors and eigenvalues Te i = λ i e i 16

9 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects There are different tensor Decomposi0on, which are oeen the basis for visualiza0on methods Polar decomposi0on stretch-rota0on Concatena0on of mappings 17 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects There are different tensor Decomposi0on, which are oeen the basis for visualiza0on methods Symmetric and an0-symmetric part Sum of mappings S = 1 ( 2 T + TT ), A = 1 ( 2 T TT ), s ij = 1 ( 2 t + t ij ji ). Symmetric part a ij = 1 ( 2 t t ij ji ), An0-symmetric part 18

10 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects There are different tensor Decomposi0on, which are oeen the basis for visualiza0on methods Isotropic scaling, anisotropic deforma0on (deviator) Many different measures for anisotropy available 19 I Tensors as mathema0cal objects Tensor Invariants En00es that do not depend on the representa0on Proper0es inherent to the tensor Examples Eigenvalues Determinant Trance All func0ons that only depend on the eigenvalues 20

11 I Tensor as physical descriptors I Tensor as physical descriptors Tensors are everywhere in Physics and Engineering Not because the world is linear But because linear is simple First order descriptors of the dependence of two vector fields à first term of the Taylor expansion v(w) = T w + higher order terms v,w They provide a more or less good approxima0on of the reality 22
